emacs server fails to start with large uid on unix

[Benjamin Rutt]

I have a large unix uid:

$ id
uid=800154870(ruttbe) gid=705(www)

it seems the emacs server of pretest 92 can't cope with this, possibly
b/c of the limit on emacs lisp's integer size.  perhaps calc should be
used, as it can handle bignums?  also `file-attributes' may have a problem 
with this large UID.  see the backtrace upon M-x
server-start after an emacs -q:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (range-error "truncate" 800154870.0)
  format("/tmp/emacs%d" 800154870.0)
  byte-code("=8c1=8c2!=88=..." [current-load-list make-variable-buffer-local 
server-existing-buffer server-name default-boundp set-default "server" server-
socket-dir format "/tmp/emacs%d" user-uid] 5)
  execute-extended-command(nil)
  call-interactively(execute-extended-command)

Thanks, --BR
